About this research
People living in isolated communities often live in homes that lack essential amenities such as clean reliable water, energy or power sources, vehicle access, telecommunications and waste management systems. Under these circumstances the health and safety of whānau, in particular the most vulnerable (kaumātua and pēpi) can be compromised and placed at risk.
This research involved interviewing whānau who reside in isolated communities and determining the essential needs of whānau (from their perspective) and the factors taken into consideration by whānau to prioritise these needs.

The overall aim of this thesis is to discover Tautoro whakapapa kōrero (important kin-community events/narratives of the distant and recent past) and strengthen the contemporary shape and flow of hapū:
1) mana tūpuna (the influence of ancestors, their leadership and deeds);
2) mana tangata (the confidence and vitality of hapū, whānau and individuals) and;
3) mana whenua (the power associated with the land, including inherited rights, power of control and the protection and conservation of especially sacred sites), and
4) tikanga (customary protocols that determine what is right and wrong in the local socio-physical environment)
